MANY years ago I purchased (at a craft sale) two pillows that had been appliqued with an airplane and a baby buggy. In each vehicle was a doll(handmade) that could be removed from the vehicle and played with by the child who owned the pillow. I have never seen these made since and would love to get a pattern to make something like that. Anyone seen something similar?

I help you search but I haven't seen those patterns before. They would be fun to make.

They WERE adorable... I don't recall if there was a tag/card with the maker's name. I gave one of these to a niece as a birthday gift or baby gift. She is now 28 years old so It was a LONG time ago...thanks for your interest in this... these have been on my mind for some time as you can tell

Do you still have the pillows? Maybe you could make a pattern!

I haven't seen that and I can't even visualize it. But the idea of it reminds me of 'church babies'. Church babies are in a little crocheted purse/bag with a draw string. You turn the purse almost inside out and it forms a cradle. Little girls carry them to church to kept themselves out of trouble.
